"Cold air goes up or down?" Mrs. Lehr said, "Anyone?" Then she tilted her head very slowly looking at each person one by one as they hid, cowering in fear of the monster that is science. You could hear throats gulping just like a symphony. Then she locked eyes with me... "Daniel, care to give this question a thought?"162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCw35Hcq33i
Everyone stared at me eagerly for me to answer or embarrass myself. The savages didn't care. They just wanted a response. "Down?" I said feeling like cold air myself.
She gave me a gaze and then backed her question up, "Why?". I was so screwed.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UmfnWN8Yz
"Um... density???" I asked just getting lower and lower on my hard wooden stool. It creaked under my movement, *creak* *creak* *creak*. The whole class looked at Mrs. Lehr for confirmation...
... But she never did, just moved on with the lesson. I just hid with embarrassment. Doubting thoughts filled my brain. What if I did get that wrong. Maybe she was just being nice. Why didn't she just say the answer? Those were also questions never answered. 162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHgoqey7IW
Mrs. Lehr went on and talked all about wind and how hot and cold air can affect it. I had no care for the topic after already knowing it. I just stared. Halfway through the video Brayden walked in. Heat raised in my body. Then out of nowhere, he came to my table where I had always sat alone and sat specifically there.162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoFMthTHht
"What are you doing here?" I softly mumbled. It was hiss though as well.
He seemed to pick up the confusion "Well, your not happy I'm here?" I had no idea what was with this period but no one seemed to want to answer me.
"Why??" I said with more confusion. He now seemed like he wanted to answer all of a sudden.
"Because someone was just showing me around the building, this is my 3rd I just had a late pass... I am new." He answered softly. Then I felt breath on my neck and pure fear on Brayden's face. I looked over where the teacher's desk was and she wasn't there. 162Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjxmUyS8hg
"Is she..." I mouthed.
He nodded with his eyes. Then she spoke.
"No speaking while the video is being played." She hissed. Then smiled and I stared at her desk, "Softer." She mouthed. I now knew what she meant. Gracefully I told Brayden. We spent the whole period talking. I smiled the whole time lost in sight. I like him.
